My main complaint is loss of detail in the highlights. The white pieces are washing into the light squares. Take the pawn on f5, for example. Looks like a blemish on the board as much as it does a pawn. You can see the black pieces the boy has captured, but try discerning the pieces the girl has captured. I'd also burn in the out of focus white shirt in the upper right a little. It's competing for my attention. Same goes for the white papers on the table. Just make them a little darker. Do you have any shots where you're shooting from the kids' level? Instead of looking down at them? That might make for a more dramatic shot.
